This article is about the evil Autobot medic. For his heroic counterpart, see Hoist (G1). For a list of other meanings, see Hoist (disambiguation).
Hoist is an evil Autobot medic from the Shattered Glass continuity family.
You can't see me!


This character has no official visual representation in any Transformers product or media... yet, at least.

Hoist can't be bothered to do his medic work with any real effort. His repairs are shoddy, at best—lazy, jury-rigged, and rudimentary. Still, if you can't afford Fixit's price, even Hoist's low-rent patch jobs are worlds better than being one of Ratchet's experiments.

Fiction

Shattered Glass

After getting "repaired" by Hoist, Blurr mused that, while his wounds were barely patched and he still hurt all over, he was still glad to not join Rodimus in getting sent to Ratchet for treatment. Dungeons & Dinobots

Side Burn mentioned Hoist, his laziness, and...experimental nature as a medic when tending to his Transhuman subjects. He may have been lying about the last bit, though. Coalescence

Timelines

  • Lift-Ticket (Souvenir set, 2015)
    • Accessories: Towing hook/blaster
Hoist was repurposed from BotCon 2015 Lift-Ticket.
Timelines Lift-Ticket is a redeco of Generations Thrilling 30 Hoist, itself a retool of Generations Trailcutter. He transforms into an off-road truck, and comes with a towing hook that can transform into a blaster and peg via 5 mm post onto any of his numerous ports. He was available only in an at-show "Diaclone 2-pack" souvenir set with Burn Out at BotCon 2015.
In terms of assembly error, at least a small number of units has his towing hook assembled backwards. (This was mostly present on the Transformers Collector's Club's web shop sales though.)
The original tooling of this toy also served as the basis of the non-toy characters IDW Flatline, Wings Universe Turbofire, and Shattered Glass Trailbreaker and Lockdown.


Notes

  • Hoist never actually appears during the stories, and is only mentioned by other characters.
